Thanks traveller 11. Really useful advice and much appreciated!! I'm sure I can cope with the spiders ( I hope! ) and all the other scary stuff that is in oz cause I've heard that oz is an absolutely amazing place

Words of wisdom.

Jazzbrit. If you take part in the practices below you should find it easier.

1:Sleep in your sleeping bag

2:set your radio alarm to go off randomly during the night, filling your room with loud talking This works best if the station is foreign

3:have several mobiles ringing, without being answered To add to the torture, ask a friend to bring plastic bags into your room at roughly 6 in the morning and proceed to rustle them for no apparent reason for a good half an hour

4:Keep all your clothes in a rucksack

5:Buy your favourite food, and despite living at home, write your name and when you might next be leaving the house on all bags

6:Ask a family member to every now and again steal an item of food, preferably the one you have most been looking forward to or the most expensive

7:Even if it's a Sunday, vacate the house by 10a.m., and then stand on the corner of the street looking lost

These simple but effective instructions should help you fall into backpacking life.

ps: i know i have copied this but still v funny

enjoy your trip

Erm thanks xxpacerxx! But still highly amusing!! And I will ask the local neighbourhood to beep their car horns randomly thru the night along with the mobiles and the foreign radio.
